English Tamil Bazaar: A One-Stop Shop for All Your Language Needs



In the period drama Rajanna (2011), the central character Mallamma (played by Baby Annie) listens to Mayabazar's songs. Although this was criticised as anachronistic, director V. Vijayendra Prasad said that Rajanna was set in 1958, a year after Mayabazar's release.[71] In Ram Gopal Varma's Katha Screenplay Darsakatvam Appalaraju (2011), its protagonist Appalaraju (played by Sunil), an aspiring director, is shown enjoying a sequence from the song "Lahiri Lahiri" in the song "Mayabazaaru".[72] In her article "The making of Tollywood", commemorating the 81st anniversary of the Indian Telugu film industry, Sunita Raghu of The New Indian Express called Mayabazar the "tour de force" of Telugu cinema.[73] In November 2012, The Times of India listed Mayabazar along with other unrelated films such as Missamma (1955), Gundamma Katha (1962), Nartanasala (1963), and Bommarillu (2006) in the list "Telugu classics to watch along with family this Deepavali".[44] On the centenary of Indian cinema in 2013, CNN-IBN included Mayabazar in its list of "100 greatest Indian films of all time".[5] In an online poll conducted among the aforementioned 100 films, Mayabazar was voted by the public as the "greatest Indian film ever."[6] In commemoration of the centennial of Indian cinema, The Hindu listed Mayabazar along with Pathala Bhairavi (1951), Missamma, Gundamma Katha, Maduve Madi Nodu (1965), Ram Aur Shyam (1967), Julie (1975), and Shriman Shrimati (1982) as the iconic films produced by Nagi Reddy.[74]




english tamil Bazaar



I was 7-8 years old when I first saw it [Mayabazaar] as a kid, I loved it immensely. Later, when I came to the film industry, I kept thinking about how KV Reddy and his team made the film back in those days. I was mesmerised by the visual effects in that film. Later, while making Yamadonga, my VFX supervisor and I spent two days just to figure out how KV Reddy had pulled off such amazing special effects back then. The more I explored the world of Mayabazaar, my respect for KV Reddy kept growing.


A bazaar or souk is a marketplace consisting of multiple small stalls or shops, especially in the Middle East, the Balkans, North Africa and India. However, temporary open markets elsewhere, such as in the West, might also designate themselves as bazaars. The ones in the Middle East were traditionally located in vaulted or covered streets that had doors on each end and served as a city's central marketplace. Street markets are the European and North American equivalents.


The bazaar of handmade indigenous items organised by the Crafts Council of Tamil Nadu for the first time in Madurai, was all about adding magic to shopping, especially in times when more and more people are taking to online shopping.


The three-day bazaar over the weekend housed craft works from almost every corner of the country including the beaded glass bangles from Delhi to exquisite hand crocheted purses made by the Thoda tribal people of Ooty and blue pottery from Rajasthan to mother of pearl cutlery from West Bengal. It provided an interactive platform for artists and customers to connect with each other making the shopping experience more personalized and fascinating.

In this paper, we list a number of non-linguistic factors that govern the choice and use of terms addressed to and referred to women in a semiurban, rural setting in an Indian language context. We distinguish between two types of factors - factors that govern the choice and use of terms to address and refer to women in one's own family and in extended families, and factors that govern these terms in contexts such as the bazaar situation where one comes into contact with relatively strangers. While in the former, the choice and use of these terms is governed by factors of kinship - real, extended and pseudo, in the latter the same is governed by a host of factors of person and social perception. The sociolinguistic description of address and reference terms in South Asian languages in general, has, so far, not iterated the kinds of social-psychological factors of person and social perception listed here. This paper tries to fill in this gap.


The social-psychological analysis of language use presented here is based on the author's experience thirty years ago as a shop assistant in the bazaar of a small town and as a member of a family of one of the non-Brahmin and non-vegetarian castes of the town located in Tamilnadu. His infrequent visits to the scene in the last three decades have confirmed the patterns and analysis presented here, and revealed several dynamics, also described below. Thus the chapter is based entirely on participant observation, participation in the scene as an individual belonging to it. No formal tool of any sort was used. No field notes were ever taken. The analysis is "based on remembered experiences filtered through the author's intuitive perception of what really happens in these situations."


The description presented here is based on language use in a semiurban, but largely rural, capital town of a taluq forming part of Tirunelveli district, one of the southern districts of Tamilnadu, India. This is a taluq town with a representation of very many Tamil speaking Hindu castes, with a substantial Muslim population speaking only Tamil, and a bilingual community speaking Tamil and Telugu. Presently, the town also has a good number of Malayalam speakers, from Kerala that is only about five to ten miles away. A notable feature of the caste composition of the town is the singular absence of any settlement of Nadar community, (see Hardgrave (1969) for a description of this caste) within the town, a deficiency amply compensated by Nadar villages surrounding the town in almost all the direction, thus injecting an additional element of strangeness in the bazaar situation wherein even the inhabitants of the town remain strangers to one another. Again, in recent years, quite a few merchants from this community have settled down in the town. And yet they do not have their own "street." 2ff7e9595c
